Hey Lotz ... have you had a chance to look over today's Spring Update on .com? Here on .ca there's not a peep about it which is surprising. Among the new wrinkles announced for MP accounts is the total abandonment of the monthly invoice and soon. I forget the implementation date, but it's happening shortly. Perhaps the upcoming change is interfering with your payment attempt, could they be getting ready to draw the funds from another source?
There was some sort of an announcement on dot com with emails to sellers around the middle of February.

Each transaction(sale) is considered it's own entity with taxes charged on each line and selling price/shipping as 1 total so no discount for sellers using lower shipping services. (Hope I've stated that correctly.) The intention is if you need your sales details for a time period you have to generate a report that will provide you with the information you require vs the olden days an illiminates reasons for an itemized invoice. A seller with a store with 'possibly' get an invoice(can't find this part confirmed anywhere) at the end of each month with subscription fees, shipping(if created from pending funds) and upcharges on listing fees. I believe either to be paid in a certain timeframe or it will come out automatically at eBay's discretion.
One of the minor perks of MP is that if a customer does not pay for a purchase no fees are removed. If they pay and cancel would think reversal would be immediate. If you process a partial refund no FVF's are refunded to the seller.
The biggest concern about fees and when they get removed is timing. As stated previously I was advised by an MP customer service agent on the phone that fees would NEVER be taken from a sellers bank account. Unfortunately I do not have a transcript of that phonecall. If funds can go in funds can come out. It will all come down to the timing of these prestidigiatations of funds.

PS1. My failed payment attempt was probably caused by the funds already in the process of being removed. I should be able to pay the balance manually or it will come out on its own by the middle of the month.
PS2. To your other point when you view announcements on the 2 sites dot com wins in volume hands down. As to what actually ever officially arrives miliage does vary. Spring announcement dot ca 2019 we were supposed to get additional store options. Never happened. I was waiting for 1 of those options patiently.
